Here is the base for what I will be working on. I am making it available primarily for those that feel the uncontrollable need to flash something! ... Of coarse as always, feedback is welcome! SimplexROM is just as it sounds(or will be). Simple, Solid, and lightly modded. I'm building this for my personal use but giving everyone else a chance to use it. It is as noted in the title built on the 6.14.84 ICS leak system and has only been tested on such! That is where I'm stuck at for now.... so thats where I'll be playing! lol.

-The Goods
The base of Simplex as it stands is Deodexed, Zipaligned , Png optimized, Debloated, with alot of removed Blur! I've removed what I could so far but plan on digging a little deeper. Some Blur apps have also been replaced with AOSP that I have compiled from source.

-Aosp Items: Gallery2, Email, Exchange, MMS, Calendar, CalendarProvider, DeskClock, GenieWidget, and Launcher2

-Init.d scripts are enabled!!! For those that want to start tweaking. I have not currently included any mod scripts.

-Build.prop Mods - dalvik.vm settings tweaked, power savers for deep sleep, max window events increased to 150, hidden adb debug notification, media jpeg quality set at 100%, Home app forced to stay in memory!.

-Known Issues
-None at known at this time.


-ScreenShots for those that like pictures



-Installation
Download and place Zip on your SDcard. Reboot into Bootstrap(CWR). If you do not have one, MAKE A BACKUP! This build requires a Data and Cache Wipe! Once the wipe has completed choose to install from SDCard. Locate the Zip and install. Reboot the phone walk away and let it sit! The first boot will take some time.

Though I don't require it by any means... its always nice! So if you'd like buy me a beer! --->

-Razr System Build 6.14.75 Base.

Ok. I've received enough interest so here it is. This is what work I had done on the .75 system build before "the incident" lol. This is and will be not fully developed! As it stands it going off of memory it has the same issues that the .84 alpha has. As I make progress on my .84 build. I will make patches for the .75 build. I will make them available to a select few before mainstream release for testing. If you decide to use this... its on you!

Downloading. Is it safe to flash if you have DT's cmplx mod flashed?

[EmericanX]

I haven't personally tested... so I cannot tell you for sure.

WOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO. Finally something to reduce the twitch

[Razrlover]

To flash this u need to be running 184 leak correct?

Nothing else but 184 or u will brick. My apologies to all seasoned crackflashers but I am still running ICS ROMS off 173 waiting for dust to settle. The extended steps needed to download leaks are more complicated and terminology is unfamiliar.

Thanks

There is no .184. You need to be on ICS leak .84, probably what you meant.

[EmericanX]

You would have to be on the .84 leak. if you're flashed to a leak off of .173 you're on .75 confusing enough? to many numbers!!! haha

[Razrlover]

Thanks snives. I use my phone for work so data, Camera, flash, email, all is necessary or I lose business opp. Waiting for something to flash is killing me. Need something for withdrawals.

I have read every post on this site and hive and xda. Any recommendations, only been rooted about 2 months. Tganks again.

Sorry if that is considered off topic

[EmericanX]

Data, Camera, Flash, Email all work here! Just so people don't think it's not... If you're not on .84 I wouldn't recommend getting there though.

[Razrlover]

My bad. Didn't mean to infer that they didnt work on this ROM or leak 84.

Cheers

[EmericanX]

Nope you're good man. I wasn't thinking you were, just wanted to clarify to make sure there wasn't a question.

[greek6486]

Would it brick on .75 though? I know most of the gb roms worked on .173 even if they were built on the one before.

Couldn't tell you... I've got no way of testing. Im guessing not

[EmericanX]

I do have a build for .75 that is at the same point though. I can make it available. The camera patch would be the same for both builds...

boner! this will be pretty schweet - one question though!

I'm stuck on .84 (for now, but nbd) - do we run a risk of losing root with this? I know we will lose root if we have to re-flash the .84 file from Moto, right? Can't afford to lose root, that's all ;-)

[thekantorfour]

i kept root after flashing this

no new problems to report so far (unless having less dumb apps is a problem)...

i'm roaming, and still have all data, no issues even right after wiping

[Muteki]

PHOTOS PLEASE

[trikotret]

Everything working but I keep getting exchange stop notice. Although I am getting emails.

no way! hahaha

[TopherRZ]

Hmm.. so what you're saying is that I should flash the .84 leak, then flash this ROM, then attempt to RSD back to .173 and brick my device. Hmm... Flashing now!

[EmericanX]

No! Do not flash .84 just to get this ROM! You will be stuck on .84 until further notice. This is simply for those like myself that flashed .84 that want something with a little less blur! I cannot stress this enough! DO NOT FLASH .84 JUST TO GET THIS ROM! If there is interest I have a build for .75 that is at the same exact point!

Ok, help me make some understanding of this. Everybody says that you cant leave .84 if you upgrade. yesterday i was having data issues so i used utility to head back to .173. it all worked fine and I came back to .84 just fine and everything is dandy. so i'm confused, whats going on? is this a totally different reference that i know nothing about?

are you 1,000% certain you are on the .84 leak (from which you CAN'T get back to GingerBread)?! You might be on the .75 leak (from which you CAN get back to GingerBread). if you are definitely on the .84 you can do this - if you are/were on the .75 and went back to .173 stay away from this one...and count your lucky stars ;-)

[jerkwad]

One other question: If we don't like the rom or find issues with it - is it possible to flash BACK to the stock .84 and retain root? Has anyone tried this yet?

yup 1000% sure. .84 to .173 and back again. Not only did it not screw me over, but it fixed my data issue
